Secret Weapon: Selected Late Poems

By Eugen Jebeleanu

Book Overview

These spare and allegorical later poems of Romania's great poet, Eugen Jebeleanu (1911-1991), are deeply moving expressions of collective and personal guilt from an artist whose early participation in and later disillusionment with the regime lend his work a particular, searing authenticity. Appearing in English for the first time, these profoundly unsentimental poems are politically and artistically significant lyric testimonies.
